If I loved you,
Time and again, I would try to say
All I’d want you to know.
If I loved you,
Words wouldn’t come in an easy way.
‘Round in circles I’d go!
Longing to tell you,
But afraid and shy,
I’d let my golden chances
Pass me by.
Soon, you’d leave me.
Off you would go in the mist of day,
Never, never to know
How I loved you!
If I loved you….
– Richard Rodgers (1902-1979), from “If I Loved You” (1945)
There is just one reason why you were born. There is a main reason why people do what they do, why they are as they are, and why this world is as it is, in all its manifold and mysterious complexity. There is one reason why this universe exists, and why it ever has existed at all; and why, against such extremely long odds, you and I as individuals are alive today. That reason, when viewed from every angle, is always in fact going to be the same reason. And it is, indeed, a very good reason… I will certainly cede to you that fact! But still, wouldn’t you expect to find more than one reason for every conceivable thing that exists, from the smallest microbes to the most distant stars, and even down to each hair on your own very precious and beautiful head? I have spent my life looking for additional reasons, or for something else that also might be going on, when you really look hard for it. I have searched for some ancillary things that we might point to as also of significant importance in this reality. But, no one else seems to be proposing any other reason for anything to exist; and, you know, at this point, I have largely given up trying to find another reason. Every other proposed reason that I ever have seen is just ancillary to that primary reason. When it all comes right down to it, at the base of our reality, the deeper we look, the more perfect this singularity of purpose seems to us to be, at least to each sincere and consistent seeker. So, if you might have reached any other conclusion about what actually is going on here, will you please speak up now? A lot of us are all ears!
The one conclusion about what actually is going on that seems to be what everyone on earth has reached is that this universe is designed to be our habitat for rich and rapid spiritual learning. That’s it! And apparently, that also is all. We won’t attempt right now to give a name to the Designer who set up this reality, beyond noting that we are living within what is apparently a grand and remarkable design which is centered upon that singular purpose of humankind’s rapid spiritual learning and growth. And a “Design” does indeed imply a “Designer”.
We should note as well that admitting that obvious fact does put us far ahead of the whole mainstream scientific community! All materialist scientists resolutely remain with eyes squinched shut and fingers in both ears, so they can continue to insist to us that the reality that we perceive to exist around us in fact has no purpose and no design about it, whatsoever. No purpose, so no Design. No Design, so no Designer! Mainstream materialist scientists still insist that the universe just somehow randomly appeared in a Bang! out of nothing, for no reason at all. And then it randomly developed to its present stage. Somehow and amazingly, but always randomly, it rambled toward nowhere, developing always by sheer happenstance to become this remarkably orderly world, even including the complex wonder of you and me, all out of nothing and with no plan. But you and I long ago dismissed their ideas as just the product of their dogmatic and nonsensical religion of atheism, because the universe is so obviously precisely designed, just as you and I are designed, with this clear purpose of our rapid spiritual development while we are on earth always somehow behind it all. Anyone who actually studies the evidence without the scientists’ atheistic religious bias can reach no other sensible conclusion.
When you begin your research with parameters predetermined, and with the end result already in mind, then you cannot claim to be doing real, objective science. To this day, scientists still are awkwardly certain that the brain must be the source of consciousness, despite all the evidence they have developed so far against this clearly bogus assumption, and although even to this day they still cannot even begin to fathom how that might happen. And they also still assume that life first somehow sprang from lightning hitting some magical primordial goo, although to this day they cannot tell you how that might possibly have happened, either. .After more than a century of devotion to their nonsensical religion of atheistic materialism, when it comes to explaining why and how matter arose, where consciousness comes from, and how life began, the materialist scientists’ efforts still are going precisely nowhere.
So, my dear ones, at this point we need not continue to wait even a moment longer for the scientific community to eventually get a clue about anything, as it ever more pointlessly flounders on. Like the worshipers of Marduk in the ancient past who threw their firstborn infants into the fires burning in their idols’ bellies, materialist scientists follow a belief-system that we can see by now is clearly wrongheaded. But meanwhile, we understand by now that this reality around us is in fact so simple! As our great hero, the pioneering quantum physicist Max Planck, discovered more than a century ago, what we experience as consciousness is in fact all that apparently exists. Consciousness is an energy-like potentiality, so it vibrates as what we experience as human emotion. Love is at the highest and most powerful consciousness vibration; and fear, anger, and hatred are at the lowest, slowest, and weakest vibration. And since time objectively does not exist, if you are conscious now, you are conscious eternally. You are eternal by your very nature. And if what we are summarizing in this one paragraph is not already clear to you by now, simply put the word “consciousness” in the search bar above and to the right, and you will find more than thirty posts that document my own developing awareness over the past few years of the overwhelming fact that Consciousness is all there is. Consciousness is the sculptor as well as the clay. You also will find some terrific linked articles and videos in those posts that helped me to at last achieve these ultimate insights. Please enjoy those prior posts about consciousness, until all of this at last makes sense to you.
So, now we know for certain that our lives are eternal! You and I dwell forever in more beauty and joy than we can possibly imagine with just these little stripped-down aspects of our minds that we are using during these brief earth-lifetimes. Oh, we often do astral-travel at night back home while our bodies sleep. And some of us are learning to remember those journeys, because the veil between realities really is thinning. But still, the Luddite scientific community holds an oddly mesmerizing control over most people’s minds. It really is amazing! Think about it. Since they first imposed their nonsensical dogma of atheistic materialism on the scientific community more than a century ago, there have been no more fundamental scientific discoveries at all. We still don’t know how or why the Big Bang happened, nor what was before it; what consciousness is, nor where it comes from; or even how life began. The answers to even these most basic And far too many people still overly trust a scientific community which tells us that one day soon, for no discernible reason, we will blink out like a light. So, they sadly cheat most people of the chance to use this lifetime as they came here intending to use it, as a place for wonderfully rapid spiritual growth!
Every person now living on earth, all eight billion or so of us, has chosen to be born on this planet because it provides us with an ideal environment in which to grow spiritually. Each of us carefully planned these lives on earth with the help of our eternal mentors and our spirit guides for these earth-lifetimes; and we had the help, too, of wonderful eternal friends who now play important roles in our lives. We put aside most of our vast, eternal minds so our active earth-minds were stripped down for rapid learning, and we accepted amnesia about what was going on as we prepared to be born into the earth-lives that we are living now. This material universe, and this earth in particular, is considered to be the toughest, and the best place in all reality to achieve very rapid spiritual growth!
I suppose part of the reason why this is true is that, once you are here, you have no idea why you are here. And now, I’m going to use my own life as a pretty good example. Apparently, I am not actually a spiritual low-life in my real life, but rather I have been working with Thomas and serving Jesus for many centuries; but you never would have known that from my own early earth-life this time around. I was embarrassingly selfish, conceited, and self-absorbed as a child, quite spiritually un-promising. OMG, it embarrasses me now to look back at the whole first half of my life as Roberta! But I felt driven to do all that afterlife research, and to read the Bible, especially the Gospels, over and over again repeatedly from the age of eleven; and gradually, a more spiritually aware being emerged in me. What seems to be the case is that we all come into these earth-lives as I did, just spiritually stupid and self-obsessed, and our guides direct us in our learning. And I don’t care how old you are now, it is amazingly easy to use the teachings of Jesus to retrain yourself spiritually and raise your own consciousness vibration rapidly enough from where you are to make this your last necessary earth-lifetime. It takes almost no time at all! Just a couple of years, if you really put your mind to it.
So, let’s do this now! It was Thomas who directed me in taking these steps, even before I actually had met him in 2015. I think he probably did it as an experiment at the time. But raising your vibration enough to make this your last necessary earth-lifetime turns out to be as easy as One, Two, Three…
Mastering these steps in this order is important. You are retraining your pared-down earth-mind! And your attitude of gratitude first captures its attention; and it prepares your mind for more intensive learning. Then, your obsessive use of Prevenient Forgiveness, your constant retraining of your mind with those forgiveness balls, clears away what has been a whole lifetime of letting your mind run wild with randomly foolish, petty and selfish ideas. This is some truly heavy-duty stuff! I spent about six months monitoring my every thought, and stopping and punishing my mind with another forgiveness-balls session whenever I had even the slightest mean or petty notion. And this was back in 2011, so almost fifteen years ago now. I swear to you that in all the years since, I have never again had the smallest unkind thought about anyone. Not once!
It was sometime in about 2015, soon after he had first come out to me as my primary spirit guide and we had together written Liberating Jesus, that my dear Thomas announced to me from out of the blue that I have now achieved the upper part of the fifth spiritual level, and that therefore this is my last necessary earth-lifetime. I hadn’t asked him this question, but he knew that I would want to know his amazing answer! And, wow, I really did want to know it. I recall that I stood up slowly from my desk when he said this, and I went outside, and I walked around for a bit, just taking it in. That was all more than ten years ago. By now, I am used to this idea. I think that I even have grown some more. But my darling, my dear one, my precious friend, if I have done it, I know that anyone can do it! You can so easily do it, too!
